  • What is tux up to these days

  • Linux bloat, graphic description

  • There's the difference

  • Fair enough, because it happened to me once - found a funny comic strip in FB or something and thought "this is great, I'll share this on Reddit" so fired up GIMP, translated it, credited the place I got it from and posted - but not long someone let the actual author of the comic to know and they commented something among the lines of "yeah, I was who actually did this, a bit sad that they're taking out my name but it's great it makes people laugh", and then the other people torched me. Fortunately I still had opened the place I got it in the first place and explained to them that I just translated it in a hurry and assumed the original author was the place I found it

  • fwiw and iirc her real name is not Sarah Andersen. Also there can be a chance OP found this image uncredited.

    But yup, if it was credited and OP deliberately erased and ommited it, won't be cool

  • KDE Connect of the Future

    Jump

  • I have a stupid idea about a semi-local RSS feed: say there is a db file of your RSS feeds that is automatically synced between your phone and your PC via KDE Connect technology. You can consume said feed with either Akregator (PC) and a phone app (iirc there's already a KDE phone app to read RSS) and both will keep track of your feeds, groups, read status and etcetera. No need to login to a third party service or anything like that.

    I just don't know if this makes sense only to me or how to post this as an idea somewhere - the times I've tried to do that in the past I just got sealioned

  • 26 February 1989

    Jump

  • I can't remember much of my childhood but I can remember this one in the local newspaper on a sunday.

  • For users of Bcachefs, sorry your FS creator is currently doing a TempleOS

    Jump

  • I mean, Terry was nuts and has his moments but you can't deny the dedication he had in making TempleOS and the ammount of work on it is nothing short of incredible. And even TempleOS has some little groundbreaking gems that other OSes can't even dream to have - not even Plan 9.

    All this to say that I don't think developing a custom LLM can ever be compared to developing a complete OS. But I don't know, don't take my word on this, I'm just a graphic designer

  • One distro for the next five years?

  • The one I've been using for the last 17 years, Gentoo

  • Why Chains Are Still Better For Bicycles Than Belts

    Jump

  • The thing with belts is that, as it happened with disc brakes, they require of you to get a whole new bike ready for them

  • KDE Plasma 6.7 to Add Desktop Switching in Overview

    Jump

  • I so wish they can bring back the one-wallpaper-per-virtual-desktop thing. I've been missing it since the KDE 4.x days, but now seeing the dynamic virtual desktops thing in GNOME makes me wish KDE had it as an option (like, you could chosse between dynamic virtual desktops or fixed virtual desktops).

  • TIL: The ‘Perfect Aryan baby’ chosen by Hitler’s Nazi regime…was Jewish

    Jump

  • Some 20-25 years ago on a local radio FM station they used to run a "bumper" from time to time of a narrator saying that one time in WWII Nazi Germany sent a decrepit train full of excrement, trash and whatnot to neutral Switzerland, trying to tease them and make them join the war. In rensponse Switzerland cleaned, fixed and painted the train, put fresh food and flowers and everything and sent it back to Germany and in the engine they put a giant banner reading "each one gives the best of themselves" or something like that - pretty sure that story was just a myth but at those times when I heard it I wished it was true because it was so fucking funny.

  • Any projects that want/require translations from English to Portuguese(Brazil)?

    Jump

  • Makes me think it would be cool if there was a website or something that listed FOSS projects needing translations and people could look up by the languages they want to translate

  • KDE Responds to FUD Over Alleged systemd Mandate

    Jump

  • I just don't like ssdm or logind non-integration with kde.

  • Gentoo Linux Begins Codeberg Migration In Moving Away From GitHub, Avoiding Copilot

    Jump

  • As if I didn't had enough reasons to love Gentoo.

  • KDE Responds to FUD Over Alleged systemd Mandate

    Jump

  • I still wonder if the systemd imposition on the new login manager is absolute and can't be circumvented in any way, i.e. GNOME is allegedly dependent on systemd but you can circumvent it by using logind instead of the full systemd install

  • How to change the color and the transparence for panel and widgets?

    Jump

  • Just be aware that that ain't as easy as opening a graphic, selecting something, changing the opacity, saving and voilá.

    Some files can be in svg format, some can be in svgz format. svgz is just a gzipped svg but I'm not sure if Inkscape can open them directly.

    Then most probably the svg elements that build the parts of the panel or the plasmoid can and most probably would be grouped. So you need to ungroup them first and be aware of that. Maybe they're grouped because that's how Plasma seeks them as an individual element and, if it's that, they will have an special id associated for them so Plasma can find them (iirc in Inkscape you can check for that in Object->Properties or something like that, a popup dialog will appear). So take note of those ids.

    Once you're done editing your stuff be sure all elements are grouped and id-ed as they came originally and then you can save the file(s) so Plasma will find the files and elements correctly without messing them up.

    (See, that's why I hate that Plasma relies on SVG for all of that stuff. The very fact that you require a non-kde app to create/edit/update them is unbelievably stupid)

  • Vim 9.2 Is Out with Comprehensive Completion, Wayland Support, and More - 9to5Linux

    Jump

  • I was using vim since 2009 or so, and at the time I had no complaints about it other than it felt heavy. So when neovim came out I tried it and... it felt pretty much the same.

    Then I learned about vis and never have looked back. It still has things I wish it had respect to vim/neovim (i.e. vim-like buffers...) because of its lack of manpower in development, but otherwise it's really snappy and the structural regex thing is so great. Oh and it has lua scripting support too.

  • "your website doesn't work without javascript"

    Jump

  • You missed the point completely, though - you should not expect every user to have a shiny updated browser in a shiny new machine using your website, and blaming them if they don't.

    If you want your website being able to be used by most of users, you better cover all use cases. That includes providing non-js fallbacks. Not doing that and blaming the users instead is just ridiculous.
